Siheyuan's Silly Pillar has been replaced by someone else

“Xu Damao, I’m warning you. You’re a married man, so don’t bother Jingru.”

Xu Damao told Qin Jingru many things, completing the initial transformation of Qin Jingru.

After he completed his mission, Qin Huairu immediately began to drive people away.

Xu Damao said with dissatisfaction, "Sister Qin, what nonsense are you talking about? I didn't pester Jingru."

I meant well and was just explaining the situation in the hospital to her.

To prevent her from offending the wrong people because she doesn't understand anything.

Jingru, let me tell you, He Yuzhu, that family, he, your sister, and Yi Zhonghai have a relationship where they never speak to each other again.

You need to be careful in the future, don't let your sister fool you into becoming a scapegoat.

Qin Huairu glared angrily at Xu Damao, just in time to see Zhang Yan coming out of the backyard.

"Zhang Yan, you need to control your Xu Damao. He's been pestering my cousin with nonsense first thing in the morning."

As soon as Xu Damao saw Zhang Yan return, he immediately felt guilty: "Yanzi, don't listen to her nonsense."

I just wanted to say hello to her.

Zhang Yan knew Xu Damao's character all too well. She could tell at a glance that Qin Huairu was telling the truth.

"Go home now. I'll deal with you later."

Qin Huairu glanced smugly at Xu Damao and led Qin Jingru into the house.

Qin Jingru was still a little reluctant to part ways and wanted to hear more from Xu Damao.

These are things Qin Huairu wouldn't tell her.

"Sis, I feel like you're trying to sow discord between Da Mao and his wife."

Qin Huairu glared at her: "What nonsense are you spouting? How am I trying to sow discord between them?"

I know Xu Damao better than you do.

That guy's the projectionist at our factory; he's always chasing after women. You're here looking for a girlfriend, so you'd better not talk to him.

When it came to such a big matter as marrying into the city, Qin Jingru became obedient.

"Sis, when are you going to introduce me to someone?"

"Wait, then."

Qin Huairu was not in a hurry to introduce Qin Jingru to potential partners.

Rushing is not a business.

The difference between actively seeking out others and being sought out by others is significant.

She wants to use Qin Jingru to stage a Jiang Taigong fishing game.

This wait lasted for several days.

Qin Jingru's news was overshadowed by Liu Haizhong.

After taking office, Liu Haizhong immediately transformed into Li Huaide's vicious dog.

Whoever Li Huaide tells him to mess with, he messes with. He's either messing with people or on his way to mess with people every day.

Liu Haizhong's methods were simple and brutal: he went directly to other people's homes and forcibly searched them.

No one can guarantee that their own bottom is clean.

Once he gets a handle on you, he'll arrest you and subject you to all ten of the most brutal tortures of the Qing Dynasty.

At the same time, this guy also took revenge on others, and those who had offended him in the past all suffered.

He caused widespread panic throughout the steel rolling mill.

Many neutral people, under pressure from Liu Haizhong, surrendered to Li Huaide.

Almost instantly, the steel rolling mill became Li Huaide's personal fiefdom.

Liu Haizhong made a contribution and felt that his official position was a bit too low.

Just like last time, he went to Li Huaide to report on his work, but in reality, he wanted to ask Li Huaide for an official position.

"Director Li, I feel I can play a greater role. I still don't have enough people under me."

Li Huaide could easily understand his meaning, but he couldn't agree to it.

Liu Haizhong's promotion was too short, and he offended too many people. He had to give an explanation to the others.

On the other hand, only hungry wolves will seek out prey.

Liu Haizhong needs to be kept hungry so he can do his job better.

"I remember all your contributions. However, you've just been promoted, and many people are resentful of you, so I can't go against the collective decision."

"Okay, you'll have to wait a while. I'll promote you later."

The simple-minded Liu Haizhong didn't realize this was just a perfunctory remark and immediately pledged his loyalty to Li Huaide. His education level was still too low; if it were slightly higher, he would have uttered grand pronouncements like "a scholar will die for one who understands him."

Emerging from Li Huaide's office, Liu Haizhong abandoned his servile demeanor and looked at his subordinates with an air of arrogance.

Zhu Chenhui bowed and scraped, asking, "Team Leader Liu, where do we go next?"

Liu Haizhong was taken aback, realizing he had nothing to do. Li Huaide hadn't given him any tasks, and his enemies had all been retaliated against.

However, one cannot lose face in front of one's subordinates.

He said, "Let's take a tour of the factory and see if anyone is dissatisfied with Director Li."

A group of people began to inspect the steel rolling mill.

When the factory workers saw this, they all kept their distance.

Liu Haizhong really enjoys this feeling.

He had heard from others when he was a child that county magistrates in the Qing Dynasty would clear the way when they went out.

He now feels like he's a county magistrate.

Passing by the Workers' Club, I saw Yang Peishan sweeping the floor.

As Li Huaide's lackey, he naturally didn't treat Yang Peishan well.

A group of people surrounded Yang Peishan.

"Hey, isn't this Factory Director Yang? What are you doing sweeping the floor here?"

Yang Peishan had become accustomed to his current environment and didn't care about the ridicule from these people.

He simply wrote down these people's names in a notebook.

Liu Haizhong, heavily pregnant, stepped forward: "Yang Peishan, you parasite among the people. You used to exploit the factory workers by abusing your power."

Do you realize you were wrong now?

Yang Peishan looked at him coldly and said expressionlessly, "I know."

If he said he didn't know, he would definitely be taught a lesson by these people. Yang Peishan wasn't stupid; he wouldn't go against them.

Liu Haizhong was not satisfied with this answer. What he wanted was for Yang Peishan to resist to the end, and then he could teach Yang Peishan a good lesson.

"I see you haven't realized your place yet. Guards, arrest him and teach him a lesson."

Let him know who's in charge at the steel rolling mill.

Those who followed Liu Haizhong had all witnessed his methods. Anyone who offended him suffered terribly at his hands.

Not daring to offend Liu Haizhong, they immediately surrounded Yang Peishan and began punching and kicking him.

Half an hour later, Liu Haizhong finally called for a halt.

At this moment, Yang Peishan lay on the ground in a sorry state, clutching his body in pain.

Liu Haizhong was satisfied and left with his men.

After he left, Yi Zhonghai emerged from the corner.

He deliberately followed Liu Haizhong's style.

After Liu Haizhong became an official, he enjoyed immense prestige for a time. It would be a lie to say that one wasn't envious.

Yi Zhonghai felt not only envy but also jealousy. He also longed for the power Liu Haizhong possessed.

If he had such great power, who would dare not support him in his old age?

However, he was cautious by nature and would not allow himself to fall into danger.

Yi Zhonghai felt that Liu Haizhong's behavior was unacceptable and that something bad would happen sooner or later. So he kept following Liu Haizhong, wanting to see what the consequences would be.

He followed Liu Haizhong for several days, but instead of seeing him suffer, he saw Liu Haizhong becoming more and more successful.

Yi Zhonghai had the idea that he could replace him.

He followed behind Liu Haizhong, hoping to find something wrong with him so he could report him to Li Huaide.

In his view, Li Huaide, as the head of the steel rolling mill, must want the steel rolling mill to be a monolithic entity.

While Liu Haizhong's approach can achieve the same effect, it carries significant risks.

While people may not dare to rebel openly, they will certainly be looking for opportunities to rebel behind the scenes.

Things will be different if it's someone else.

His methods are far superior to Liu Haizhong's; he will definitely be able to help Li Huaide take control of the steel rolling mill.

This would also allow him to use this incident to dispel Li Huaide's prejudice against him.

Unfortunately, despite following Liu Haizhong for three days, he couldn't find any evidence to bring Liu Haizhong down. (End of Chapter)
